3. What is DevelopmentWhat is Development
Embryonic – brain, organs, tissues, from
plueripotential cells comes specialization
Psychological – Stages of behavior,
physical development, mental
Spiritual – depends on the tradition,
evolves throughout life and can begin in
utero
4. Pre-Implantation EmbryoPre-Implantation Embryo
35,000 genes carry all the information
required to transcribe the human
phenotype.
Plueripotential cells change based on
exposure to hormones and chemicals
Placental invasion starts life because of
anoxia and evolves into oxygenated life.
Blastocyst receptors for growth hormone in
the fallopian tube. Deficiencies have been
shown to cause hypertension after birth
5. Embryonic StageEmbryonic Stage
8-14 weeks
Orchestration of hormonal and
environmental influence on the embryo
differentiate gender and growth
◦ IGF-1
◦ Fetal insulin and glucocorticoids
◦ Sex hormones
All anatomic structures are present and
are in the stage of growth
6. Pre-Embryonic vs EmbryonicPre-Embryonic vs Embryonic
Before 14 days the embryogenesis is an all
or none response.
Exogenous, Endogenous or environmental
insult at this stage will cause spontaneous
miscarriage
Teratogenic influence
◦ Infectious agents (TORCH)
◦ Medications, hormones, and chemicals
◦ Physical (radiation)
◦ Environmental toxins and drugs
◦ Maternal factors (diabetes)
7. Placenta as conductorPlacenta as conductor
Distinctively mammalian
Invasive organ, can become cancerous
12-14 weeks fully functional
Each placenta meets the needs of the
individual fetus
Functions
◦ Waste and nutrient transfer
◦ HCG production
◦ Progesterone production
9. Sharing theWorld with FetusSharing theWorld with Fetus
Touch
◦ Nerve growth and sensation begins immediately in
fetal life
◦ Mother can “feel” the fetus move @ 16-20 weeks –
quickening (entering of the soul?)
◦ Bonding with the infant through pressing on the
abdomen or rocking the fetus as you walk
Hearing
◦ Queens University study demonstrated that fetal
heart rates increased when mother read to the fetus
◦ Responses to vibroacoustic stimulation were
demonstrated 19-25 weeks
◦ Ears begin to protrude from the head at 16 weeks
10. Sharing theWorld with FetusSharing theWorld with Fetus
Smell andTaste
◦ Neural fibers reach the tongue at 6 weeks (Witt,
1998)
◦ Link between amniotic fluid and breast milk
connecting mother and baby
◦ Bakalar, 2012
Amniotic fluid contains glucose, fructose, fatty and amnio
acids
Introduction of sweet solutions into the amniotic fluid
increases fetal swallowing
Mennella (2012) a taste for sugar is innate
Mothers who ate more fruit in pregnancy and lactation
had babies more likely to eat peaches, however string
beans did not have the same effect
11. Sharing theWorld with FetusSharing theWorld with Fetus
Sight
◦ Fetal eyes can detect light at 28 weeks
◦ LED pulses of light on abdomen increased
fetal kick response and increase of release of
dopamine (Warrander, 2012).

12. TheTwo Way Umbilical CordTheTwo Way Umbilical Cord
We have discussed fetal development and
the potential effects of external and
internal influence
How can women bond with the unborn
fetus?
Conscious, unconscious, and meditative
Journeywork exercises for the mother to
be
Ultrasound connection (Pretorius, 2005)
13. Heart rate variabilityHeart rate variability
Sympathetic and parasympathetic neural
systems and the heart
◦ Maternal
◦ Fetal
Institute of Heart Math
http://www.heartmath.org
◦ McCraty, 2004
The heart generates the largest electromagnetic field in
the body (60 times greater than brainwaves)
Not impeded by tissue and can be measured several feet
away
Individuals in close proximity will have synchronization
of heart rates which can fluctuate based on emotions.
15. Fetal Heart RateVariabilityFetal Heart RateVariability
Development of the Brain-Cardiac axis
Battle for control of the sympathetic and
parasympathetic systems.
Determination of fetal brain health
(reactivity and nonreactivity)
Normal fetal heart tones 20-160bpm
19. Maternal Fetal Bonding (Coherence)Maternal Fetal Bonding (Coherence)
Ivanov (2009)
◦ Fetal hear rate and variability changes with
maternal oxygenation
◦ Maternal stress increases the fetal heart rate
◦ During sleep the fetal heart beat decreases
synchronously with the maternal heart rate
◦ Maternal fetal coupling or synchrony may not
be related to respirations
The maternal cardiac system has a direct detuning
effect on the fetal rhythm
